September, 2009

Today is Ashley's first day of high school. I really can't explain how I feel about that. Just 10 years ago she was in kindergarten learning how to read and such. Pray for her this year as high school in a public school can be quite difficult at times.

Lindsey and her silly faces.

Silly as always.

Lindsey likes to help in the kitchen. (I feel like I live in the kitchen.) She likes to pour ingredients like flour, sugar, spices and she likes to stir. In this picture we were making "Back-to-school brownies" and she got to lick the spatula.

Yum!

Thomas the Train

Thomas the Train was in town this past Saturday and we decided to "meet" him along with about 100 other excited children. It seems like events like these bring out either the best or the worst in children. However, Lindsey loved meeting Thomas and was excited to take a ride on his train.

Lindsey watched Ashley decorate her birthday cake. Lindsey said "I want to squeeze that" about 50 times. This is the picture of her getting to 'squeeze' the decorating bag.

Didn't Ashley do a great job with the zebra stripes? I helped a little :)

The camera was zoomed to the max on this picture from our beach house.

Lindsey still likes playing in baskets.





View from inside the house. I've never seen North Carolina oceans look so blue.

Ashley and Lindsey finally got to meet Briar this past weekend. Both of my girls loved him! I must say, he does have the most laid back personality that I have ever seen!
